“Since then, Arciga has gone on to prove his mentor’s prediction of his future. In addition to earning both private and federal scholarships, the UA junior now serves as president of the Northwest Arkansas Chapter of the League of United Latin American Citizens and is a member of Phi Iota Alpha - the first Hispanic fraternity on the UA campus. Additionally, in 2006, Arciga became a U. S. citizen.

On Thursday, Arciga shared his story with about 80 Hispanic high school students from Rogers and Springdale.

The event gave students a chance to experience campus life, as well as access to the educational tools needed to continue their education.”*
